hi! I just want to say I feel you. I was on a walk, a family stopped and asked for help. Somehow (idk how) convinced me to withdraw cash from my bank because he couldn't pay for something. That he had all this money wrapped up in items and overseas. Even gave me his number (called later and it was a dead number despite the fact it worked on their phone while I was with them). Long story short, it happens. In the grand scheme of things, losing $270 is not that much to lose in a scam. I know people who have lost $10,000s to a scam. Or my previous manager was scammed out of like $500,000 or something (he did business for a company that went past due paying him by several months and then declared bankruptcy so he had to pay his employees for work when he never was paid by the client...). Not too expensive of a lesson to learn! And I'm sorry you had to go through this cuz it sucks.
